Bright-Ling. In German words, the second vowel in EI/IE determines the sound. Ends in E, sounds like E. Ends in I, sounds like I. Scheisse and Edelweiss being well-known words with the EI sound/spelling. If it were spelt Brietling, it's be pronounced Breet-Ling.

I can smell the difference between Pepsi and Coke and, when being tested (double-blind - they were French) in the office had to hold my nose to show I was actually tasting the difference before declaring Pepsi as the vile brew that it was. I could tell 100% of the time and prefer Coke every time. The problem with broad strokes describing RWGers and TZers is that some of us are them and some of them are us. We're everywhere and so are they. Oh, Irn Bru in a glass bottle is the finest of all the fizzy drinks, just in case it was in any doubt.

Breguet is pronounced differently to every suggestion I've seen here. As far as I can tell, it's pronounced Bruh-Geh with emphasis on neither syllable. Oh, and Blancpain is pronounced Mother's Pride.

I have raced Mt Panorama often ... in simulators. It's a good track, especially in a 1967 F1 car. I usually download the Bathurst 1000 highlights as it's a culturally important race.

It's scanned out-of-sight before departure and after landing before baggage reclaim for the usual explosives and drugs. You have to look pretty shady to get caught with anything mild, though.

... and you remembered! He's doing his job very well as one of the not-as-famous-as-my-rivals candidates needing to be remembered for something ... anything!

Firstly, it depends which airport. Secondly, it depends on how many and of what. If you're flying into Italy or France with half a dozen Subs, still in plastic, you're humped. If you're flying into Dublin or Glasgow (a flight I make often) with a Super-rep on your wrist and two more in a River two-watch case, you're fine.

It worked, didn't it? We're discussing McCain as a candidate, for one reason or another.

I decided I needed a new shot of my Planet Ocean so, lacking inspiration, I copied Bazz, again:

Well, I waited this long to get a fresh wrist shot. Here's what I'm wearing and it feels small after a Planet Ocean:

Geeks, not nerds. There's a difference. If your computer tells you the drive is too full, then yes, your performance will suffer. Both Mac OSX and Windows warn you when you're too close. The warnings are real and you can have catastrophic effects if you don't listen.

Yes, we know The Zigmeister's posts are no longer available. It's got nothing to do with the Wiki. Like I said, it's unrelated.

I've put the images inline so we can peruse them all on the same page without clicking. I hope you don't mind.

Unrelated.

Like I said, modern OSes don't require that the user to worry about fragmentation. It's snake oil and there are plenty of people out there willing to sell it to you. If your windows system has got to the point that you think fragmentation is an issue, it's time to reinstall from scratch anyway as the registry cruft will be causing your PC to slow down and you're looking for something to blame. Windows XP needs a fresh reinstall every 12-18 months on a well-used system, according to my experience and that of my peers.

This is one of those logical assumptions that makes an ass out of you and some guy named Umption. With modern drives and modern OSes, the performance need for defragmenting is a lot less than you'd think. For instance, how many Linux, BSD, Solaris or Mac OSX defraggers are available? Because Vista constantly background-defrags.

Grow a pair of balls. A large watch, worn confidently does not look silly.

Me? I'm boring and still wearing my uPO.

Well, your opinion, as wrong as it is, is always appreciated. Unless you're working with video, it is unlikely you will see much noticeable (as in real-world, not lab tests) difference between a fragmented and defragmented drive. Also, if you're noticing performance degradation due to page-ins (not page-outs as they are harmless) on a machine with 3GB of memory, you need to seriously rethink your workflow. Oh, and if you're running Vista, you never need to defrag.

I love watch porn threads! Of all these watches, I only still own the 45mm Planet Ocean. In the search for my perfect Omega, I've traded more Omegas away than any other brand. GMT: MoonWatch: Older gen 42mm PO: My little Bro's Seanaster: My big Bro's PO: Ultimate Planet Ocean 45mm:

Nothing says ostentatious like a 35 minute max battery life on a laptop.

Not since the 20th century, no. Swap files matter for naught when you have enough RAM and defragging assumes you need large contiguous blocks for files: you don't. Both those suggestions assume hard drives are slow and have no caching and that the OS really cannot use pagefiles properly.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but they didn't claim they were 100% made in Switzerland anywhere. Hmm ...

2892, but you'd need to get a case that takes a 2892 unmodified or you'd need to rework a case, a lot. Your best bet is to wait a short while for the new Seadweller rep.
